## Job description

## About Us

Torch Dental is a high-growth startup on a mission to empower healthcare providers starting with the $100B+ dental market. We’re building a new AI powered Revenue Cycle Management product from the ground up to transform how dental practices get paid. Insurance claims today involve significant manual work across follow up, payment posting, and reconciliation. We believe much of that work can be automated, and we’re building the product to make that possible. We also operate a Marketplace that modernizes dental supply procurement with transparent pricing and a seamless online purchasing experience. Backed by $50M+ from premier investors like Bessemer, American Express, Health Velocity Capital and Felicis, we are a mission-driven team dedicated to solving tangible problems for small business owners. We prioritize customer obsession and a bias for action, fostering a collaborative culture where every engineer is encouraged to take ownership and deliver meaningful impact.

## The Role

We're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who leans frontend to build our RCM product while also contributing to our established Marketplace. You'll spend the majority of your time building the experiences dental practice owners and their teams use every day, while owning features end to end across the stack. We care deeply about customers and the product experience. You'll work closely with product, business stakeholders, and other engineers to understand customer problems, shape solutions, and ship experiences that feel simple and intuitive. We expect AI to be part of how you build. Project planning , driving implementation with coding agents, and reviewing output with the same rigor you'd apply to a teammate's pull request. Our interview process reflects this. During the onsite, you'll build on your own laptop using your own AI tools and setup, so we can see how you actually work.

## Key Responsibilities

Build fast, well-structured frontend experiences in React and TypeScript Own features end-to-end — from component and state management through API integration and deployment. Contribute to backend APIs using Python and FastAPI Collaborate with product and business stakeholders to translate requirements into clean, usable interfaces Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and engineering standards Mentor other engineers and advocate for frontend quality across the team Navigate two distinct frontend contexts — our RCM product is a React/TypeScript SPA; our Marketplace app is Django server-rendered with bundled JS

## What We're Looking For

7+ years of software engineering experience with a strong frontend focus Deep expertise in React and TypeScript Solid understanding of UI fundamentals — layout, performance, and state management Hands-on experience with TanStack Router and TanStack Query (or strong opinions about routing and data fetching you're ready to apply) Backend range to build and maintain Python/FastAPI endpoints and data models Strong instincts for product quality, strong attention to detail and judgement to around implementation decisions Familiarity with coding agents and can articulate where they work well, where they fail, and how their workflow has evolved around them

## Preferred Qualifications

Experience with payment flows, billing systems, or insurance-adjacent products Familiarity with Zod and schema-driven API clients Familiarity with TanStack Router and TanStack Query (our RCM product's stack) Background in B2B SaaS or workflow-heavy products Healthcare or dental industry experience

## Compensation and Benefits

Competitive compensation packages including early-stage equity 401(k) retirement plans through Empower Comprehensive health and dental insurance via Aetna Flexible time off policy for all employees Paid leave for new parents Fully provisioned kitchen for our onsite team A vibrant, collaborative culture featuring team events and celebrations of our collective milestones

## About Torch Dental

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Torch Dental provides an all-in-one supply ordering, inventory management, and budgeting platform designed specifically for independent dental practices.
- **Entity Type**: Private (backed by institutional investors; total funding of $70.5M)
- **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States
- **Founded**: 2017
- **Founders**: Boukadoum brothers (names not publicly disclosed) and Drew Werner (Co-Founder & CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary Industry**: Dental supply and equipment procurement / Healthcare technology
- **Target Customers**: Independent dental practices of all sizes and specialties (general dentistry, orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, pediatric dentistry) – primarily B2B.
- **Mission Statement**: “To improve the lives of healthcare providers by simplifying supply ordering, providing transparent pricing, and modernizing a previously outdated ordering process.”

## Products & Services
- **[Torch Dental Platform]**: An all-in-one SaaS platform that combines three core functions:
  - **Ordering**: A single catalog to browse, compare pricing, and purchase from 25+ authorized vendors in one cart.
  - **Inventory Management**: Smart dashboard to track supplies, set reorder levels, and receive AI-powered recommendations.
  - **Budgeting & Spend Analytics**: Tools to set budgets, approve orders, and analyze spending across locations.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue of $4.1M (LinkedIn estimate); Total Funding of $70.5M across 5 rounds
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by “world class institutional investors” (specific names not disclosed); partners with 25+ authorized dental supply vendors (e.g., Henry Schein)
- **Growth Signals**: Trusted by 3,000+ practices; practices using Torch save an average of 16% on supply costs; expanding from dental into the broader office-based healthcare supply market ($100B+ addressable market). However, headcount has decreased 34.5% YoY (from ~100 to 66 employees).

## Competitive Advantages
- **Collective Buying Power**: Aggregates demand from 3,000+ independent practices to negotiate pre-negotiated pricing that individual practices could not access on their own.
- **Price Transparency & AI**: Real-time price comparisons across vendors, AI-powered recommendations for lower-cost alternatives, and full spend visibility.
- **Simplified Workflow**: Single-cart ordering across multiple vendors eliminates manual ordering, reduces administrative burden, and prevents overspending.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current Priorities**: Deepening penetration in the dental market, expanding product features (e.g., AI-driven inventory predictions), and exploring expansion into other office-based healthcare specialties (e.g., veterinary, optometry).
- **Direction for Growth**: Leverage the existing platform and vendor relationships to scale beyond dental, while continuing to improve the unit economics of independent practices.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as inclusive, collaborative, high-performing, and diverse. The company claims 97% diversity (reflecting a commitment to a diverse workforce). Team is “close‑knit” with a focus on “one team” culture and customer obsession.
- **Work Policy**: Hybrid – current job postings are in New York, NY (Senior Full Stack Engineer) and Austin, TX (Senior Account Executive, Senior Sales Manager). Remote-friendly for some roles but not fully remote.
- **Notable Perks & Engineering Culture**: Competitive benefits package; strong technical leadership (CTO Drew Werner led infrastructure at Dropbox Paper and was an early employee at Datadog; holds degrees from MIT and Harvard). Opportunities to work on a real-world problem with meaningful impact on healthcare providers.
